Shell Beach / Central Coast of California

Who would thought that the hour I get away the sky would explode and produce a show of such beauty that hasn't been seen in quite some time. A moment of awe as the land reflected those colors in every rock and shell and if the shadows themselves could have cried out in envy of the land's envelope of something wholly beautiful and silent as this.
